Tilth's Restaurant, Seattle, Washington

We ate amazingly well in Seattle in general. It's one of the few places where we stayed in a Bed & Breakfast and Korby's breakfasts at the Sleeping Bulldog are definitely worth mentioning, as is the Pike Place Market. However, August 14 was D. and my very first wedding anniversary! So we had the 8 course tasting menu at Tilth's, with wine pairing. Of course I took pictures to share with you all!

Nous avons vraiment bien mangé à Seattle. C'est un des endroits où on est resté dans un Bed & Breakfast et les petits déjeuners de Korby au Sleeping Bulldog sont vraiment à mentionner, ainsi que le marché de Pike Place, mais quand même le 14 août, c'était notre premier anniversaire de mariage et on a fait un menu dégustation à tomber par terre. Pour vous faire baver (attention à ton ordi Damia !)...

Happy anniversary! A whole year already ... and what a feast to celebrate. So fun to try all those dishes. I have an Aunt and Uncle as well as a couple of cousins who live in Seattle so in my younger years spent a bit of time down there.

Cicero - Thank you! I love tasting menus because you get to try so many different things in small portions.
